This is a video-grab image of Osama bin Laden, the leader of the Muslim terrorist group al-Qaeda, which was displayed on Al-Jazeera television while an audio tape was played. The speaker on the tape, believed by a US government official to be authentic, praised recent terrorist attacks in Moscow and Bali. The tape was broadcast yesterday by the Qatar-based Al-Jazeera television network.
